Hannaford Provolone Extra Thin Slices
What it is
These are pre-sliced pieces of provolone cheese, cut to an extra-thin thickness. Provolone is a semi-hard Italian cheese made from cow's milk. It has a mild, slightly smoky flavor that intensifies with age. The extra-thin cut makes these slices very flexible and quick to melt. They come in a resealable package for convenience.
How people cook with it
These thin slices are ideal for sandwiches and melting applications where a quick melt is desired.
- Sandwich layers
- Quick melting
- Wraps
- Appetizer bases
Open the package and separate the thin slices of provolone. They are ready to be placed directly onto bread for sandwiches or layered into wraps. For hot dishes, add them during the final stages of cooking to allow them to melt smoothly over other ingredients. Their thinness means they will soften and become gooey very quickly, making them perfect for topping pizzas or quesadillas just before serving.
How it differs from similar foods
Compared to thicker provolone slices, these extra-thin pieces melt much faster and more evenly. They also offer a more delicate texture in cold applications, conforming easily to the shape of bread or fillings without being overly dense.
Who it is for
Home cooks and sandwich makers who appreciate convenience and a quick melt.
How to keep the rest
After opening, reseal the package tightly to prevent the cheese from drying out. Store the remaining slices in the refrigerator. It is best to consume them within the recommended timeframe on the packaging for optimal freshness and flavor.
